Israel, much like the fortress of Tel-Chai that Jospeh Trumpeldor fought to defend against Arab conquerors in 1920, finds itself beseiged by enemies both within and without. Terrorists, would-be friends inside and outside Israel, and even bad government officials. Here are the discussions of one proud Zionist resident on the state of the nation and abroad.

Leftist policeman charged with assault on Jewish child

The police Internal Investigations Department has announced it will stand on criminal trial an officer suspected of hitting a child from Yitzhar in Samaria, with an indictment for assault to be submitted in the coming days.

The suspected assault occurred around a year-and-a-half ago. The child, identified in a TV report as Y. and who was 11-years-old at the time, was arrested by officers in the Sha'ar Binyamin industrial area when he and his sister were on their way to a wedding.

The officers claimed that Y. punctured the tires of cars belonging to Arab residents, and wrote on them "death to Arabs" and "price tag revenge" with a marker. Even after being taken into the police station for investigation, the child firmly denied any connection with the incidents.

At this point, Y. charges that the officer struck him and slapped him in the face, while other officers shouted at him and threatened that if he didn't confess he would be sent to jail for a long time.

After he was released, the 11-year-old together with his father submitted a complaint to the Internal Investigations Division of the police, during the processing of which Y. was brought in for a polygraph test that confirmed he was telling the truth.

By contrast, the suspected officer refused to take a polygraph test, with his unwillingness to confirm his story strengthening the suspicions that he broke the law.

Honestly, I wonder if the sicko did the deeds himself? Seriously. He should be removed from any job with the police and does not belong in civilized society.

From Jerusalem, Israel

I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
